multimedia manager by series (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

is there a media server/manager that supports multiple types of media (i.e books, series, comics, etc) natively and allows media to be ordered by series? i came across this problem when trying to organize a series in my media collection that contains movies, series and books; i tried searching for a solution on jellyfin...

cannis OP ,

i could be wrong, but aren't libraries intended to be separators for different types of media? in the jellyfin docs on libraries it directly states mixed media libraries are discouraged due to incorrect metadata.
collections do sound like a good idea, but it lacks the visual and information aspect about the series i'm looking for. still, it does sound like the best choice so far

cannis OP ,

exactly, i think something like this would work best as a plugin or addon, though none seem to exist atm

cannis OP ,

that does sound like a good idea: i've considered making something like that in the past but realized i'm not quite knowledgeable enough on javascript yet to make it a thing, but i'll definitely keep it in mind. it would also be nice to be able to create a page for each series automatically based on some sort of template and automatically fetch metadata, though i'm not sure how that could be implemented
